Wine Tasting Dinner with Helioterra Wines and the Victorian Belle
Join us for a five-course tasting menu dinner at the Victorian Belle featuring the beautiful pairings of our own Chef Jorge Castillo Quintal and Helioterra Wines. The Winemaker from Helioterra will guide you through the subtleties of the wines for each course.
Helioterra Wines
How did a gal from Sheboygan, Wisconsin, grow up to become a winemaker in Oregon? It all started with her love for the land. She pursued her love of the outdoors at the University of Wisconsin, where she earned a degree in Geology and Environmental Studies. She knew then that her career path would lead to a connection with the land. Feeling the entrepreneurial spirit of the Oregon wine industry, Anne introduced her first solo vintage in 2009 and thus began Helioterra Wines. Over the past ten years, she has developed relationships with extraordinary grape growers throughout the Pacific Northwest, creating wines that honor the fruit and the people who grow it without limiting herself to any particular style or type of wine.
“My wines are a grounded, honest expression of my winemaking style, reflecting feminine sensibilities. They are sensuous and evocative, honoring the wine grapes and the fertile vineyards where they are grown.” — Anne Hubatch, Winemaker
